Conditions for entitlement of paternity leave benefits are:
- he is employed at the time of delivery of his child;
- he has notified his employer of the pregnancy of his wife and her expected date of delivery subject to the provisions of Section 4 hereof; and
- his wife has given birth, suffers a miscarriage or an abortion.
As soon as the married male employee learns that his spouse is pregnant, he shall inform his employer of such pregnancy and the expected date of delivery within a reasonable period of time.
The employee shall accomplish a Paternity Notification Form to be provided for by the employer and submit the same to the latter, together with a copy of his marriage contract, or where not applicable, any proof of marriage. The notification requirement shall not apply in cases of miscarriage or abortion.
Any employee who has availed of the paternity benefits shall, within a reasonable period of time, submit a copy of the birth certificate of the newly born child, death or medical certificate in case of miscarriage or abortion, duly signed by the attending physician or midwife showing actual date of childbirth, miscarriage or abortion, as the case may be.
The paternity benefits may be enjoyed by the qualified employee before, during or after the delivery by his wife. The total number of days shall not exceed seven (7) working days for each delivery. This benefit shall be availed of not later than sixty (60) days after the date of said delivery.
The best proof of cohabitation is the affidavit. This template for Affidavit uses fictional name for purposes of illustration only. It contains the name, nationality, residence, and basic allegations.
It is important to state the place of cohabitation, the name of spouse, proof of valid marriage (marriage contract), validating proof of place of cohabitation (barangay captain’s certification), declaration of provision of support as spouses, and purpose of the Affidavit.
While it seems obvious, it should be properly signed and notarized.

Guide to Valid Job Contracting and Subcontracting 2nd Edition
The subject matter of job contracting and subcontracting is a trick territory for businesses their owners. Understanding the technical sides of it are left to the experts and practitioners.
Nonetheless, even experts find the topic challenging. This book is intended to help companies, business owners, managers, expats, and HR practitioners navigate through the “treacherous waters” of job contracting and subcontracting.
While the word “treacherous” used to describe it may be strong the association to it is justified by the fact that engaging in contracting is very technical. A single mistake, regardless of intentions, of the parties will be catastrophic.
Read more..
Imagine, for instance, a big company contracting hundreds of workers with what it thought was a legitimate contract, which due to technical errors the
authorities suddenly found the relationship a labor-only contracting. The said scores of employees of contractor will become regular with the principal. This will surely blow the pay grade of the company out of proportion. The correction and/or adjustments needed will be enormous and costly.This work provides not just laws, rules, and regulations. It gives perspective, insight, and the bird’s-eye view of the situation to serve as a map to the right direction. It tackles D.O. 174, Series of 2017 which superseded D.O. 18- A. The DOLE Advisory 01, Series of 2017 providing exceptions. Relevant rules such as D.O. 19, D.O. 13, and D.O. 198, among others.
Also, R.A. 11058 and relevant decisions of the Supreme Court on the matter, most especially, on off-detail status in a 2019 case, Bognot vs. Pinic International (Trading) Corporation/CD-R King, et al., (G.R. No. 212471, March 11, 2019). Can individuals with unique skills and talents engage in contracting without registration under D.O. 174? The author discussed the answer in this work.
Salient points of D.O. 174 include the substantial capital of P5 million, shortened validity of the registration, concepts of temporary off-detail, expiration of service agreement, termination for just cause, authorized cause, and not due to expiration of service agreement and their implications.
This book is a compliance guide, first and foremost, to help businesses in their quest to achieve their objectives the legal way and without accidentally falling in the traps of technicalities.
